  • Totally Garbage

    Bought an ebook on this because of class requirements. I just bought the book 1 month ago, and I cannot open the book today to do my homework. I thought it’s internet issue or anything, so I tried everything to get it work, like restarting, use other WiFi, etc. Lastly, I tried redownloading the app, now when I login with my email, it said email address is not recognized. This app literally has only one job, one simple job, and it failed. Completely trash app.

  • This should not be its own app

    The PDF reader is so obnoxious. It constantly jumps forward and backward when I’m trying to scroll down. There’s no way to disable this behavior.

  • This is a reader?

    It's hard to believe that such an august institution could allow a company to produce such a crappy ereader. The best one can say is that the font is nice; but surely one cannot read using this ereader.
  • HORRIBLE APP

    So many bugs in the app I don’t know where to start.
    My main issue though is that the app doesn’t load pass chapter 2.3 of my textbook.

  • Not very good reading experience

    There is a progress bar (illustrated in the sample screen shots) that *never* goes away but which obscures the bottom lines on the page, which requires changing the font size in order to see what’s at the bottom. A frustrating experience.
  • Don’t get it

    Horrible app

  • Scrolling is Poorly Designed and No Highlighting

    The app does not let you choose between scrolling or tapping for page changes, as it uses both. This is a poor setup as it’s very easy to accidentally tap while scrolling and end up on the wrong page. There should be an option to use only one method, like every other reading app. Also, there’s no ability to highlight or save notes. This is a basic feature used in iBooks, Kindle, etc. it’s quite annoying not having that. I’d recommend buying from Amazon and reading on Kindle instead.

  • Aweful app

    This app does not have the basic features one would expect. I'm going to have to repurchase the books in paperback.
